Lions place kicker Jason Hanson has been awarded NFC Special Teams Player of the Month of September 2011.
The 41-year-old Hanson is 8-for-8 on field goal tries for the undefeated Lions, but even more astounding, is 3-for-3 on kicks from over 40 yards and 2-for-2 on 50+ yard field goal boots. Hanson also has 11 touchbacks on his 21 kickoffs, nearly matching the 12 touchbacks he recorded on 169 kickoffs over the previous three seasons.
